[Arnhem] English subs: L'engloutie
#This meetup is around a third-party organizer (Focus Filmtheater): you can either purchase your ticket online or right before the session. **Seats are numbered**#
**Title**: L'engloutie
**Language**: French
**Subtitles**: English
**Length**: 98 min
**Director**: Louise HĂŠmon
**More info**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/agenda/lengloutie-2/
**Ticket link**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/tickets/143042/
**Synopsis**:
On a stormy night in 1899, AimĂŠe, a young republican schoolteacher, arrives in a snowbound hamlet on the remote edges of the French Alps.
Despite the villagersâ mistrust, sheâs determined to shed light on what she sees as their dark beliefs. As she gradually becomes part of the community, a sensual vertigo begins to grow within her. Until the day an avalanche claims the life of a first mountain dweller.
**How it works**:
I will be at Focus around 18:30, where we can meet before the movie starts. You can message me to find us. Screening starts at 19:00. After the movie, we can have a drink together.
Hope to see you soon!
Utrecht Serious Games design - Playtest (je eigen) serious games.
Stel je voor: een avond waar karton en ideeĂŤn vonken geven. Waar pionnen geen plastic zijn, maar gesprekstarters. Waar een prototype geen âbijna-afâ product is, maar een laboratorium op tafel.
Spellenmaakgilde en The Serious Gamers bundelen hun krachten en brengen het beste van twee werelden samen.
**Het Spellenmaakgilde** is een community voor makers van bord- en kaartspellen: testen, schaven, opnieuw proberen. Idee > prototype > feedback > beter spel.
**The Serious Gamers** richt zich op spellen die meer doen dan vermaken: ze zetten spel in als middel om te leren, gedrag te spiegelen en gesprekken op gang te brengen op de werkvloer.
Op **woensdagavond 22 april** draait alles om Serious Game Prototypes.
Heb jij een spel in ontwikkeling dat iets wil blootleggen, oefenen of veranderen?
* Een spel dat teams helpt elkaar ĂŠcht te begrijpen?
* Een spel dat mensen kritisch laat kijken naar hun werk of naar de maatschappij?
Dan is dit jouw moment.
We bouwen samen aan spellen die niet alleen leuk zijn, maar iets in beweging zetten.
đ Locatie: **CafĂŠ Oproer in Utrecht**
đ Tijd: **19.00 - 22.00\***
đś Deelname: **gratis**
đ˛ Doel: **testen, leren, aanscherpen**
Neem je prototype mee. Of kom spelen en feedback geven.
Maar kom vooral!
Meld je aan en schuif aan tafel.
\*Aan tafel kan ook voor avondeten, de locatie is vanaf de middag geopend. Dus kom er gerust (op eigen kosten) wat eten vooraf.

Girls Night Out: Laugh, Connect & Recharge @The 5th
**This might be the girls night you didnât know you needed.**
Many women are living in constant âonâ mode- always busy, always giving.
And somewhere along the way, we forget how good it feels to simply *be together*.
This is your invitation to a real **girls night out**.
Every 3 weeks we come together to relax, laugh, connect and support each other â without pressure, without fixing, without performance.
**When women gather in a safe and supportive space, something powerful happens.** We uplift each other through shared laughter, honest conversations, and non-judgement presence. Being around other women who get it can make everything feel a little lighter and brighter.
It helps us feel less alone, more supported, emotionally stronger - sometimes simply by being in the same room together.
Sometimes we talk. Sometimes we listen, Sometimes we laugh - and even sing - until our bellies hurt.
Youâre free to share whatâs on your mind, or simply enjoy the energy of being around other women who get it.
Thereâs no agenda. No judgement.
Just genuine connection, joy, and friendships that feel *easy and real.*
And often, thereâs that quiet thought:
*âoh wow, I didnât know I needed this.â*
All I ask is that you come exactly as you are â tired, joyful, quiet, loud, curious, or unsure. Everything is welcome.
We meet every 3 weeks - The upcoming months it will only be in Utrecht. later on we will switch between Utrecht, Amsterdam and Leiden - because connection grows when we keep showing up for each other â not perfectly, just honestly.
⨠Come as you are.
⨠Leave feeling lighter, more connected, and a little more yourself.

The Story So Far: A WiA Reflection Circle
A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange
At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter.
This is the follow-up.
Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered â and honestly explore whatâs actually happening now.
Together, weâll explore:
⢠What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in
⢠Whatâs surprised you, supported you, or shifted
⢠What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know
If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote â your word, your artifact, your intention. Weâll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. Youâll start where we all started: with whatâs true right now.
Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, youâre warmly invited to bring it back.
The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter.
Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate.
What to Expect
⢠A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup)
⢠Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak
⢠Reflection, listening, and lived experience â not advice-giving
⢠Optional creative reflection alongside conversation
⢠A calm, supportive environment
Who This Is For
Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change â especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords.
Good to Know
⢠No preparation required
⢠If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - itâs optional but invited
⢠Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome
⢠Creative activities are optional
Saturday Mornings @ East Market
Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating.
Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator.
Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."
